Pure Flow
6 November 2011

Katy Connor and Duncan Rowland, 2011, iPhone and iPad App

PURE FLOW [mobile edition] is a mobile artwork by Katy Connor that reveals new perceptions of technological systems,transforming the iPhone and iPad into a live probe revealing the noise between GPS satellites, 3G networks and Wifi hotspots as a tangible presence in the environment.

Once activated, PURE FLOW visualises these signals as a sliver of fluctuating white noise, responding directly to the movement

and immediate environment of the device. The user can directly manipulate the outcomes, by touching the visual and sonic patterns triggered by fluctuations in the data, sampling this immersive and enveloping field.
